While shooting Argylle starring Henry Cavill and Dua Lipa, Matthew Vaughn encountered a unique challenge due to a cast member.

How a GPS Tracker Was Used to Keep This Henry Cavill Co-Star in Check on ‘Argylle’ Sets, Matthew Vaughn Reveals

In the realm of espionage cinema, the upcoming Argylle boasts of not only an
A-lister ensemble including Henry Cavill
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/] and Dua Lipa but also one of the
most legendary directors of all time: Matthew Vaughn. Before taking the helm of
this eagerly awaited film, Vaughn had already enjoyed success in the spy genre
through his 2014 flick: Kingsman: The Secret Service. However, Argylle presented
a unique challenge to Vaughn unlike any other he had faced before.

To stop the leading actor from testing his patience, Vaughn resorted to nothing
but GPS tracking.


THE ARGYLLE DIRECTOR UNMASKS A PROBLEMATIC ACTOR

During this year’s New York Comic Con, Matthew Vaughn spoke about the one actor
whose presence dominates Argylle the most: the cat in the backpack named Alfie.
After feeling let down by a professional “cat actor”, Vaughn chose to bring his
daughter’s cat Chip into the mix. However, Chip pulled so many disappearing acts
on set that they were forced to use a “tracker” on the adorable feline. 



Even the movie’s trailer that left netizens amused with Cavill’s appearance

the cat was present in the majority of scenes. So it is safe to say that it
plays a crucial role in the movie. Still, of all the megastars that feature in
Argylle, Vaughn probably did not expect the cat to be the most demanding one.
Well, at least this distinctive struggle made for a hilarious anecdote for
fans.

Unfortunately for Vaughn, this would not be the only obstacle that Argylle would
present. 


HENRY CAVILL AND DUA LIPA WERE FORCED TO ABANDON VAUGHN DURING THE PROMOTIONS

In a recent interview with Josh Horowitz, Argylle’s director addressed the
conspicuous absence of the actors in its promotional campaigns. Due to the
ongoing SAG-AFTRA strikes, the cast was forced to sit out during the marketing
spree. Although Vaughn confessed to feeling frustrated because of this, he also
acknowledged that the protest presented a far weightier and more crucial issue. 



After the strikes conclude, he looks forward to bringing their staggering star
power into the loop. After all, the movie not only boasts of younger stars like
Cavill, Dua Lipa, and John Cena but also features various celebrated veterans
like Samuel L. Jackson, Catherine O’Hara, and Bryan Cranston! With their
combined allure, the film is bound to pull in massive audiences. Especially with
Vaughn’s mischievous cat’s endearing presence.
